1. A. burning of the materialsOxygen is needed for combustion. Without oxygen, burning won’t happen. This is why fire needs air (which contains oxygen) to keep burning.2. B. rustWhen iron comes in contact with water (moisture) and oxygen, a chemical reaction occurs, forming rust (kalawang). It weakens the metal over time.3. D. exposure to oxygenWhen the inside of fruits like apples and potatoes is exposed to air, they react with oxygen, causing oxidation. This is what makes them turn brown.4. CombustionCombustion is the scientific term for burning. It needs a fuel and oxygen to produce heat and light.
